Well, we’ve obviously touched on Kyle Busch. We’re concerned about Kyle Busch. I’m concerned about Bubba Wallace. For me, I think they’re just missing a little bit, on the speed side of things, and they haven’t been able to put a lot of things together, and when they do, it’s kind of been like Kyle Busch. It doesn’t go right for them. It doesn’t seem to work out, in the end.

The RCR legend while further discussing on the point asserted that Bubba Wallace and the No:23 team are capable of getting out of the situation. But in order to do that they have to capitalize on the days they have good cars and good feel.

So, I think they have the capability, to put more speed together at certain places, and it’s just going to come down to capitalizing on those days, where he’s able to go to a race track where they can do that.
Kevin Harvick said.

Bubba Wallace has seven more races to prove his worth and secure the third win of his career in the clutch moment. It would be interesting to see if 23XI and the driver would able to deliver in the most important stage of the season for him.
